Devon Conway’s chapter with the Chennai Super Kings has concluded, with the New Zealand cricketer confirming his release ahead of the crucial IPL 2026 retention event. After three impactful seasons with the yellow brigade, Conway shared his appreciation for the loyal CSK fan base, thanking them for their consistent backing. His IPL debut in 2022 marked the beginning of a strong association, where he scored 252 runs. The 2023 season proved to be his most fruitful, as he accumulated an impressive 672 runs, solidifying his reputation as a formidable T20 batsman. Despite missing IPL 2024, CSK secured his services again in the mega auction for ₹6.25 crore. However, his performance in the most recent tournament was less prolific, with 156 runs from six outings. This release opens up opportunities for Conway to represent a different franchise in the upcoming IPL season. Reports suggest CSK is considering significant squad changes, potentially including the release of several other players to build a fresh-look team for IPL 2026.
